Lithographic apparatus and device manufacturing method

A system and method to manufacturing a device provide a substrate and perform at least one exposure step. Each exposure step projects a patterned beam of radiation, which was patterned using an individually controllable elements, onto a target portion of the substrate. The projected patterned beam includes a plurality of pixels. Each exposure step also: (a) ordinarily controls the elements, such that each pixel delivers a radiation dose no greater than a predetermined normal maximum dose to the target portion in the exposure step; and (b) exceptionally controls the elements, such that at least one selected pixel delivers an increased radiation dose, greater than the normal maximum dose. The increased dose may be delivered to compensate for the effect of a defective element at a known position in the array on a pixel adjacent a selected pixel. Alternatively, it may compensate for underexposure of the target portion at the location of a selected pixel resulting from exposure of that location to a pixel affected by a known defective element in another exposure step. The invention uses doses up to the predetermined normal maximum for normal printing, but reserves at least one increased dose for compensation purposes. Accordingly, even when a dead black pixel falls in the middle of a group of surrounding white pixels it can be compensated for by increasing the radiation dose delivered by one or more of those neighboring white pixels, above the normal fully white value.

Unfiltered radiation therapy

This is a new technique in IMRT and 3D conformal gamma radiation dose delivery using a linear accelerator with no flattening filter. The technique improves patient radiation therapy by reducing radiation scattered to surrounding normal tissue and reducing electron contamination. It increases dose rate to shorten treatment time. Linear accelerators have for decades come with a photon flattening filter to make the photon profile of planar fluence to make the dose distribution more uniform. These filters, however, resulted in fluence attenuation and contamination of the beam. Now in the age of techniques such as intensity modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) the function of the flattening filter becomes redundant. The flattening filter now merely reduces the efficiency of the beam by reducing the fluence and increasing scattered radiation. Our technique involves removal of the flattening filter for complex treatments. It uses inverse planning along with multi-leaf collimators to shape the dose distribution.

Application of recombinant human calcineurin B subunit

The invention relates to the field of proteins, in particular to application of recombinant human calcineurin B subunit, and mainly provides application of rhCNB to preparation of a medicine for killing and / or inhibiting a liver cancer cell Bel-7402. After continuous medication for 6 times, medication groups of rhCNB for injection with doses of 10 mg / kg, 20 mg / kg and 40 mg / kg all have a relatively good inhibiting effect on the growth of human liver cancer cell Bel-7402 solid tumors. Subsequent testing results show that the effects of high-dose, middle-dose and increasing-dose medication groups are superior to that of a low-dose medication group, and the treating effect of rhCNB for injection is equivalent to those of recombinant human interleukin-2 for injection and hydroxycamptothecine for injection in a solvent control group. The results of d7 testing after final medication show that the high-dose group has the optimum controlling effect (p is smaller than 0.01) on tumor cell proliferation, which is superior to those of other dose groups and a positive control group, and equivalent to those of a hydroxycamptothecine medication group and the increasing-dose group (p is smaller than 0.05).

System and methods of photon-based radiotherapy and radiosurgery delivery

Photon-based radiosurgery is widely used for treating local and regional tumors. The key to improving the quality of radiosurgery is to increase the dose falloff rate from high dose regions inside the tumor to low dose regions of nearby healthy tissues and structures. Dynamic photon painting (DPP) further increases dose falloff rate by treating a target by moving a beam source along a dynamic trajectory, where the speed, direction and even dose rate of the beam source change constantly during irradiation. DPP creates dose gradient that rivals proton Bragg Peak and outperforms Gamma Knife® radiosurgery.

Screening methods for identifying and treating hiv-1 infected patient sub-populations suitable for long term Anti-ccr5 agent therapy

Certain R5 virus tropic HIV-1 subjects with viral load effectively conventionally controlled using HAART, i.e., subject having less than 50 viral copies / mL (<50 cp / mL), may be substantially more susceptible than others to effective monotherapy treatment using anti-CCR5 agents, e.g, PRO 140 mAbs. Certain HIV-1 subjects using PRO 140 monotherapy treatment may experience prolonged or unlimited time periods with actual undetectable viral loads, extremely low viral load counts ≤1 cp / mL, very low, or low levels, or at conventionally undetectable levels, during monotherapy. Increasing dose amounts of anti-CCR5 agents, e.g., PRO 140, from 350 mg to 525 mg or 700 mg, may beneficially suppress a subject's viral load count before, during, and / or maintain effective prolonged monotherapy and may shorten the period of time necessary to determine if a subject will respond positively to PRO 140 monotherapy to less than eight (8) weeks. This invention includes protocols, methods, and kits.
